Lyrics
Once again, I'm a big dumb sucker
You blew me off when I need another
How many times can you act like this
And expect my needs to go unexpressed?
I wanna feel that you're still there for me
And not just taking advantage of me
We all got issues, you're no exception
But your behavior's becoming unethical
I'm going deaf from the sound of silence
Two virtuosos of violence
I never talk and you never listen
It's always seething a pool of resentment
I'm breaking up like peanut brittle
Thank you very little
I wish a curtain would close but I know that it won't
Until we're enclosed in the catacombs
Whoa, whoa
Can someone tell me what the hell is going on
Whoa, whoa
Can someone tell me
Tell me what the hell is going on
You know the way to pretend that you feel love
But a fake just ain't what I'm in need of
I need you here and I need you with me
Screw Skype and instant messaging
I wanna feel that you're still there for me
And not just taking advantage of me
I wonder what you're thinking inside
Is your heart as conflicted as mine is?
Whoa, whoa
Can someone tell me what the hell is going on
Whoa, whoa
Can someone tell me
Tell me what the hell is going on
'Cause I don't know
I don't know, whoa
No, no, no, whoa
Don't know
